How To Put Text Behind Image In Adobe Photoshop?

I demonstrate how to quickly add text behind an item in a photograph using Photoshop in this lesson! This effect is ubiquitous, appearing on everything from magazine covers to film posters, and often includes the placement of text behind a person’s head. As we will see, creating the look in Photoshop is very straightforward. A simple picture, some text, a fast selection, and a layer mask are all that is required! Let us see how it works.

Step 1:

Open your image

Step 2:

Insert your text into the picture and align it with the item.

Step 3:

Using the Layers panel, drag the picture to the Background layer. To pick the Background layer, click on it.

Step 4:

Move the duplicate layer above the Type layer.

Step 5:

Choose the Quick Selection Tool

Step 6:

Choose the region in which the text will be hidden.
